Skeletal dysplasias: A radiographic approach and review of common non-lethal skeletal dysplasias.
[achondroplasia]
Skeletal
dysplasias
are
not
uncommon
entities
and
a
radiologist
is
likely
to
encounter
a
suspected
case
of
dysplasia
in
his
practice
.
The
correct
and
early
diagnosis
of
dysplasia
is
important
for
management
of
complications
and
for
future
genetic
counselling
.
While
there
is
an
exhaustive
classification
system
on
dysplasias
,
it
is
important
to
be
familiar
with
the
radiological
features
of
common
dysplasias
.
In
this
article
,
we
enumerate
a
radiographic
approach
to
skeletal
dysplasias
,
describe
the
essential
as
well
as
differentiating
features
of
common
non-
lethal
skeletal
dysplasias
and
conclude
by
presenting
working
algorithms
to
either
definitively
diagnose
a
particular
dysplasia
or
suggest
the
most
likely
differential
diagnoses
to
the
referring
clinician
and
thus
direct
further
workup
of
the
patient
.
